Queer CoEnbInatlon.

EDITOR NEws:-The Republican of
this morning champions the cause of
the Woman's Equal Suffrage associa-
ton, and claims for them that they
had no finger in fighting the issuing of
permits to druggists. Nevertheless,
several Of the officers and members of
the association were leaders in the
movement, and, if rumor is to be be-
lleved, circulated the protest for sigma
lures. Are they now beginning to be
ashamed of their action? Or is it be-
cause the movement has proven fail
ure, and the members of this associa-
ton do not wish to have the fact be-
come public that they were incapable
Of holding the helm and proceeding in
the channel provided by law, with even
so small vessel and cargo as this?
The WOman's Suffrage association de-
nying any action as against druggists
permits, with Gov. Eskridge as their
mouthpiece, presents queer combina-
ton. to say the least, and one which
the W. c. T. U. should inquire into.

KANSAS has been mentioned as land
of promise for the anarchists, because
here they need have no fear of death at
the hands Of the law. But even this
has its drawbacks. For, while the law
can not take their life, the people some
times rise in their might and do little
hanging on their own account. And
when they do, there are none of the
luxuries which as are supplied by the
law, such as elegant oyster suppers,
wines and liquors, ad libatum, etc., etc.
Instead, the victim is apt to have a
rope thrown over his head and his body
dragged behind a feet horse at full
speed, until all the anarchy is jerked
out of his hide. If any anarchist
thinks Kansas good state to practice
bomb-throwing in, we predict sudden
and radical change in his views shortly
after practicing his profession in our
midst.

KANSAS EXECUTIONS.

The following able article from the
State Journal, especially at this time,
is well worthy Of careful perusal and
consideration by those opposed to cap
ital punishment, and will possibly give
food for reflection:
The execution of Lee Mosier, by the
United States authorities, at Wichita,
this morning at 9:34 O'Clock, was the
first judicial hanging in Kansas since
the execution of William Dixon, at
LeavenwOrth, in August, 1870. So far
as we are able to ascertain at this writ
ing, there have been but eight judicial
executions in Kansas previous to that
at Wichita this morning. The execu-
ton of a man at the hands Of an infuri-
ated mob, has not been, we regret to
say, of infrequent occurrence, and has
not created that ripple Of excitement
attendant upon the judicial hanging,
and is generally the occasion of out
bursts Of so-called wit, that is let loose
by the press of other states that have
no mob hangings.
The hanging of Mosier this morning,
has revived the interest OF the public
concerning Kansas executions in
general, and judicial executions in
particular.
The executions by mobs have indeed
been so frequent that even mere men
sion OF each would require much more
space than we can devote to the sub
ject.
July 31st, 1858, James Stevens was
murdered by John @. Quarles and
w. M. BAYS. The murdererS were
hanged by a mob the next day, on an
elm tree, where the Leavenworth
union depot now stands. The exc
cution of these two men was public
decidedly so. Samuel D. Lecompte,
then chief justice of the territory, was
present and addressed the mob, urg-
ing that the law be allowed to take its
course. The wives and children OF
Stevens and Quarles were present
pleading for the lives of the murder
ers. But the mob would not listen to
speech-making or pleadings. The
scenes enacted at the execution OF
these men were simply awful, but the
average male inhabitant Of Leaven-
worth enjoyed them, and q general
drunk was INDUCED in during the day
and night. The hanging Of these two
men was the first on Kansas soil. The
execution was by bowling mob. The
last hanging on Kansas soil, we might
add, will no doubt be by q mob, unless
murder shall cease entirely, or the
statutory laws on the subject are
materially changed.
LeaYenworth was the scene also OF
the first judicial hanging in Kansas
that we have record OF, Karl Horn hav-
ing been hanged in that city in 1852.
On the SOth of October, 1858, William
Griffith was hanged in Linn county for
having participated in the Marais des
Cygnes massacre, on the 10th Of May,
1858. Judge Scion o. Thatcher pro
nounced sentence and the executioneI

the NEWS.
No one visiting FL Paso would con-
slider his trip complete without CROSS
ing the Rio Grande. Taking the street
cars. the only international street rail
way company IN the world, we reached
the Rio Grande in about q mile. The
river is very wide at this point, and
presents its usual appearance of quick
sand with its changing bed. Across
the river is afine bridge both for the use
of The car line and vehicles. A short
distance above this is the Mexican
Central railroad bridge.
Coming to the Mexican side of the
river, we found the Mexican guard, a
burly stern set OF men who look as if
composed of stubbornness and determi-
nation, but Of fine physique. I could not
help thinking that the Mexican army
our soldiers fought, must have been
much inferior in personal appearance
to the well dressed and soldierly bear
ing of this guard.
AS we drew near the Mexican
side an officer of that country
entered the car to ascertain If the pas
should be paid, but he made no exam
inatiOn; except sack containing some
mining tools, no search was made. To
an American, Paso del Norte presents
strange but not a pleasing sight,
Nearly all the houses are one Storyand
composed of adobe, the roof being
nearly flat and supported by logs. be
tween which are placed smaller pieces
of wood, and covered by that meterial.
The fencing, where there Is any, is
high and is of the same material as
their houses. In some places houses
were built so as to leave court In the
center; some such places are owned by
one family. In some places in the city
the houses are all Joined together and
forming continuous line for a mile.
This however is in its business por-
tions. The smaller places of business
are very small, from twelve to twenty
feet deep, but of larger frontage.
There are however some fine large
stores well filed with good goods. The
most noted place here Is the Catholic
Cathedral called the Lady OF Guada-
| lupe. This was erected in 1872 and is
in afne state of preservation.
It is beautifully situated, being on the
highest elevation in the city, and not
far from the river. Leaving the cars
we passed west on the main street

route we passed the Mexican custom

FROM the Kansas City Evening News,
one of the brightest and best of our ex-
changes, we clip the following kindly
comments. Coming from so good a
source it is doubly appreciated:
The EmpOria NEWS appears to have
come out of the recent campaign with
about as clean record as any newspa-
per in Kansas, and with even greater
cause for individual satisfaction. HaV-
ing no partisan masters to serve it was
under no obligation to vilify number
of respectable citizens in the interest of
certain other respectable citizens, and
it conducted its campaign without sub
stituting abuse for argument. 1t is
now having the laugh that it is entitled
to over the efforts of its partisan con-
temporaries to hedge upon the use
less acerbities of rather disgraceful
campaign.

THE Irish World says that in a cou-
pleof districts in New York city lust
before the election, illegal voters were
colonized by the wholesale. ''For a few
days before the closing of the registra-
tion," it continues, lodging houses
were packed with the intention of roll
ing up a big vote for the candidates
who paid for the votes that the keepers
of these lodging houses were willing to
sell at stipulated price. The well
known ward workers took these fraud
ulent voters to the various places of
registration, and had their names
placed upon the registry. The one
who registered received 81 for doing so,
with the promise of an additional
amount on election day. In some cases
the same persons registered two or
three names. BY these means the po-
htical bosses can easily roll up ma
jority for their candidate. 1t is only a
question or money. If the Doodle is
forthcoming the votes can be easily
had. When it is stated that
1000 voters in one assem-
bly, district were registered
from sixteen lodging houses we can
form an estimate of the extent to which
illegal voting is carried on. Many of
those registered from these houses
never slept night in them 1T is
impossible, " comments the World, and
its comments are certainly mild when
the facts are considered, ito over
estimate the Importance of putting a
stop to such state of things. The
men who pay for these illegal votes
have to spend immense sums. II
elected they think themselves justified
in recouping themselves in whatever
way they can. 1t is not to be
supposed that men who will resort tC
such practices as we have been des-
cribing will be scrupulous about &C.
cepting bride. Thus we find them in
the national and state legislatures as
well as in the municipal government
engaged in the work of bringing
republican institutions into disrepute.
Something must be done to secure
purity of election in our great center
of population to save the republic from
one of the greatest dangers that
threatens it,

Ala the Druggists I'm The City. VIVA
OneEEeeDcOn.G Granted FeKnaits.
Thursday the petitions for permits
By the city drug stores came up before
Judge harrington for action, and, with
one or two exceptions, were more or
less contested by ]. F. Drake, who ON
objection being made to his interfer-
ance, stated that ne was paid to oppose
the granting Of certain permits. Each
one Of the applicants was questioned,
as required by law, by County Attorney
Feighan, and the cases were then
taken under advisement by the court.
Friday it had developed that Judge
harrington has granted the requests
OF all who have made applications for
permits. which have been or will be
issued to each on their filing the
requisite bond.
The Republican in referring to this
matter locally Friday morning, has the
following:
Thursday afternoon a Republican
reporter called on Judge harrington to
ascertain whether or not he would
grant permits to the druggists. The
Judge was out, but the Office was well
filed with ladies. The reporter in
ferred from the conversation of the
ladies that if they were probate Judge,
no permits would be granted. The
ladies were busily engaged comparing
the remonstrance with the petitions
filed, to see how many signed both.
Only a few were found who
favored both. They were also
trying to decipher the names
that had been erased. The probate
judge shortly after came in and the
reporter asked for his decision. The
Judge said : II have made no entry in
my books yet and do not care to say
what conclusion have come to-" The
Judge then in speaking to the ladies,
said, According to law I will have to
grant permits, as the druggists have
complied with the law and filed proper
petitions" D. w. Hainer afterwards
told a reporter that the Judge told
him he would grant the permits. Per-
mits therefore no doubt will be for
mally issued to-day to the druggists who
have filed proper petitions.

Wednesday November 10, about 2
O'Clock, the little three-year old boy of
Mr.. and Mrs. Howell Williams, on
Dry Creek, ten miles southwest of
Emporia, got lost and was not found
until about dark. The whole neigh
borhood was aroused and old wells and
other dangerous places were searched.
About dark the child was found in a
cornfield some distance away, so much
chilled as to be unable to walk. His
rescue was timely, as he probably
could not have withstood the cold until
morning.

TOPEKA CAPITAL: Iowa does not
seem to be tired of prohibition.
Governor Larrabee carried the state
by $4,000, being gain of fully 1000
votes in his plurality of two years ago,
and more than 1000 gain on the
plurality of last year. Those who
thought Iowa would throw off her
grip on the saloons were seriously
mistaken. She made it tighter than
before. The main fight was on the
legislature, and there the republicans
have increased their majority on joint
ballot from thirty-two to tbirty-nine or
forty. The third party ran its ticket
in the state as usual, Notwithstanding
that Iowa has good prohibitory law.
But this ticket got less than 200 votes
out of $50. 900.
